Thanks for reading my blog, Maya! No, I doubt cheating will be eliminated completely even if we did computerize… But yeah, it could give us “lead time” before those trapos catch up. And also, I still think that I.T.-enabling government systems, especially elections, will save lives.

I guess cheating will takes its digital form ika nga for as long as "intention" to cheat is there. But I guess they'll have to rethink the methods of cheating and hopefully it will take them some time to do that until there are better ways in the system that can safeguard the votes and the overall electoral process... hi blogie. i agree that computerization is necessary to improve the election process, although i dont completely agree that possibility of cheating will be eliminated when you shift the process.
